I think Kurt Angle vs Undertaker at a Wrestlemania could rival the Taker/HBK matches. Remember their NWO 2006 match? That was incredible and is overlooked simply because it was at NWO
I think it could be a great match, but I don't think it would have the story and importance behind it.
One big part about Taker vs Michaels isn't even a part of the storylines, but real life. The two guys are the biggest veterans in the company today, and probably of alltime. Neither of them has ever left through thick and thin, and they've been there for 20 years.
Add to that the fact that they were both made top guys at the same time in the mid 90s, and after a few classic encounters, never faced again for a decade.

Plus the fact that both of their legacies are defined by the event of Wrestlemania. No other two wrestlers have that kind of word association with the event. The Streak and Mr. Wrestlemania.
The event is everything to the series of matches. If the rematch, or the first one, were to take place on any other PPV it would be a fantastic match but so much of what makes it great would be sacrificed.
